Hey guys,

I thought I would show this off here...

I decided to finish up this knife, and since I have posted my other two knives here...

Tell me what you think...

Thank you,

I've got a few more questions for you Marion. How thick is it, and is it a chisel grind or ground on both sides? Also do you have a measurement for the cutting edge? It looks just under 2" but hard to tell.
Thanks!

Click to expand...

1/8" thick 1084 High Carbon, Differentially Heat Treated.

Flat ground, both sides.

And you are right on with that estimate of 2 inches. 2 inches of cutting edge.

Thank you!
Marion
